Embracing Missionary Identity

The podcast episode discusses the importance of embracing a missionary identity. It emphasizes that the mission of God is not limited to the New Testament but is seen throughout the grand narrative of Scripture. The end goal of God's mission is for Christ to be surrounded by worshipers from all nations. However, sin has misdirected our worship, leading to the existence of unreached people groups. The main point is that prioritizing the gospel reaching these unreached people groups is living out our identity and purpose as worshipers of God. The episode also highlights that the gospel is not just about forgiveness of sins, but also about reconciling us to God, saving us into the church, and empowering us for mission. It emphasizes the importance of embracing our identity as new creations in Christ and ambassadors for Christ, and living out this identity by making disciples and engaging with the lost.
